I want England to have freckles and bunny teeth so that ALL of his children can inherit freckles and bunny teeth. New Zealand and Australia get the whole package with the thick eyebrows and green eyes, but America, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Sealand etc all have the bunny teeth and freckles.

I like to think America as the rebel child. Since unlike Canada, Australia and New Zealand the US is a federal republic and not in the commonwealth of nations. While most former British colonies is in the commonwealth of nations, rather there got independence from them or not. The US and Ireland are the only two native English speaking countries not in the commonwealth of nations.

Politically, the US isn’t part of the Commonwealth because it became independent earlier than the Commonwealth countries. And Ireland isn’t part of the Commonwealth because it became a republic in 1948 (which broke the connection to the Commonwealth under the then current charter.) It doesn’t have anything to do with America being a rebel child.

But in Hetalia terms, I could see England thinking of America as a rebellious child based on his personality and the fact that he became independent so early. Based on his canon personality and Australian stereotypes, England might have also viewed Australia as a rebellious child even if he is part of the Commonwealth (but perhaps not as much as America). Other countries like Ireland and India should be older than England, so he would have never thought of them as children. Ireland was rebellious, and Scotland is probably the most rebellious one of the countries currently in the UK (based on stereotypes and the recent Independence Referendum).

The Anglospheres big 3 signs

Pisces Moon

Aries rising

America (based on Declaration of Independence):

Cancer sun

Aquarius moon

Sagittarius rising

Canada (based on Dominion of Canada creation):

Cancer sun

Gemini moon

Aries rising

Australia (based on commonwealth of Australia creation) :

Capricorn sun

Taurus moon

Aries rising

New Zealand (based off of Treaty of Waitangi):

Aquarius sun

Aries moon

Taurus rising

Canada shares an Aries rising sign with England. Australia shares a Capricorn sun and Aries rising with England. New Zealand has one of Englands big 3 with the Aries moon. So it's official. America is the only nation within the Anglosphere who doesn't share a big 3 sign with England, but does have similarities with Canada (both have Cancer sun and Air moons) and New Zealand (America's Aquarius moon matches New Zealands Aquarius sun). You'll note, though, that Capricorn and Cancer are highly compatible sister signs, with Capricorn being the father of the zodiac and Cancer the mother! They sort of act as a balance to each other, similar to yin and yang, opposites attract etc. Irl, it's no wonder that the Capricorn-Cancer nations keep gravitating toward each other throughout history. Canadas near unshakable loyalty to the British crown aka England, AUKUS (alliance between America, a Cancer sign and two Capricorns Australia and an England led UK), Canadian-Australian relations in general, the Special Relationship alliance (and before that the Great Rapprochement) between America and Britian (ahem England), and Five Eyes as a whole. Cute. I also love how Australia and New Zealands moon and rising combos are just reversed versions of each other lol also cute
